I saw this interview with Megan Kelly. Unbelievable! These ex-Bain workers said they were totally taken out of context. They even said they received raises when Bain took over. The one guy, who was portrayed to look like he was crying said he was actually wiping dripping sweat out of his eye cause the cameras were so hot during the filming! They had no beef with Bain. One of the guys said he was probably going to vote for Romney!
The damage has been done and Romney has been labeled as a tool of the wealthy. In any case, there are thousands of others out there who were displaced by Bain. There will be no shortage of suffering humanity to put up on the TV screens this summer and fall. It's not fair; it's politics.

Were they displaced by Bain or did their last owner ruin the company so bad that Bain could not fix it? Did they at least keep their jobs for a longer period of time because of Bain?
So when is Newt going to exercise his 'influence' over the SuperPAC putting out these inaccuracies? Oh right, he's cheering them on, along with the class warfare rhetoric.

They got raises with Bain and one guy got several promotions with Bain. Things were good when Bain owned the company. The problems they referred to were when the company was sold to a teachers union group years later. They were not even told when giving these interviews that this was about Bain or Mitt Romney. They were told this was a documentary about factories in the US. The whole thing is a just a big lie. The bad thing is the damage has been done now. I wouldnt' doubt some legal action being taken.

Mitt didn't destroy jobs with Bain. The companies he bought had already self-destructed from poor policies. If Mitt buys a failing company and has to cut jobs to save the company's very existence literally, then he actually saved some jobs that would have been destroyed through the original company's foolish business plan.
He explained the steel company in the last debate. Bain invested millions and 6 or 7 years into it before it went out of business. It was during a time when a lot of steel companies were going out of business.
